Yeah, looks like we are headed back to Salem. I'm not sure why that is, because Manchester and Springfield are at Orrville. I don't particularly care competition wise, we'll do fine whichever way we go (although Bedford would make life difficult). But still, would have been nice to have been spared the drive, that way more spectators would want to come for us.

Speaking of Bedford, they have no intention of breaking that up ever, do they?

Salem looks like it has been made even easier now that Norton is gone from there.

Actually I feel kinda bad for Norton, because they got D1'd. I mean, I know they are our rival, but cmon, last year was nice seeing ptc teams doing well at regionals.

I am not really sure how our squad will shape up this year. In our senior class, we have Sibley, super athletic, in the sprints. We have Hilbert in the distance, he is not elite like Woodridge, but against the rest of the league, he will suffice. We have Skaggs, a mid distance guy, a couple throwers. But not a ton of depth within that upperclassmen, although there are a couple juniors who could have breakout seasons. The biggest variable on how our season goes, as well as the next few, will be on how much our underclassmen develop. We have quite possibly the most talented underclassmen group that I have seen. Sprinters galore. Mid-distancers, even a couple long distancers, hurdlers, throwers, maybe some jumpers. A lot of potential there. But much of that talent will still likely be putting up rookie numbers to start this season. It will take time before that talent reaches its potential. Our season will depend on our underclassmen.
